...LOCALLY SLICK TRAVEL POSSIBLE AND AREAS OF FOG ACROSS THE
HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE SOUTHERN POCONOS AND NORTHWEST NEW JERSEY...

WHILE TEMPERATURES HAVE RISEN JUST ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK ACROSS
MOST AREAS OF THE SOUTHERN POCONOS AND SUSSEX COUNTY NEW JERSEY...SLICK
SPOTS ARE POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT. THIS IS DUE THE SNOW THAT FELL THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. UNTREATED SECONDARY ROADS IN THE HIGHER
TERRAIN ARE MOST LIKELY TO PRESENT SLICK TRAVEL CONDITIONS. 

IN ADDITION...MELTING SNOW AND RELATIVELY LIGHT WINDS WILL RESULT
IN AREAS OF FOG DEVELOPING. THE FOG COULD BE DENSE IN SPOTS...WITH
VISIBILITIES DROPPING BELOW ONE-HALF MILE AT TIMES IN THE HIGHER
TERRAIN. THE FOG IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH LATE TONIGHT...BEFORE
CONDITIONS IMPROVE.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO TRAVEL THROUGH THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE
SOUTHERN POCONOS AND SUSSEX COUNTY NEW JERSEY OVERNIGHT...BE ON THE
ALERT FOR LOCAL SLICK SPOTS ON THE ROADS...AS WELL AS POOR VISIBILITY
IN FOG.
